- Check the windshield for cracks or chips, and make sure that the seal around the windshield is intact.
- If you find any damage, you will need to replace the windshield or have the seal repaired.
2. Clean the windshield and the area around it.
- Dirt and debris can prevent the sealant from adhering properly, so it's important to clean the area thoroughly before applying any sealant.
- Use a mild detergent and water, and rinse the area well with clean water.
3. Apply sealant around the windshield.
- You can use a silicone-based sealant or a urethane-based sealant.
- Follow the instructions on the sealant package to apply it correctly.
4. Let the sealant dry completely.
- This will usually take 24 to 48 hours, depending on the type of sealant that you used.
5. Test the seal.
- Once the sealant has dried, you can test the seal by spraying water on the windshield.
- If the water leaks through, you will need to apply more sealant.
